Jags ML +136
Home team has dominated this series winning the last 5 meetings. This is a bit of a rivalry and Coughlin will have the Jags playing hard even though they are out of the playoff race. I am sure they would like nothing more than to try and put the Titans out. Titans coming off a big Monday night win over NE may have a letdown here. Titans OL is also banged up and McNair hasn't practiced in like a month which could be a bad combination. Like the Jags to get the W at home.
Denver +3.5
This is a must win game for Denver. Feel that they have more talent on both sides of the ball. They have a better running game and think they will take advantage of a depleted and struggling Raiders' secondary. Should at least be a close game so will take the points.
Green Bay under 43.5
Don't think this will be the shootout everyone is expecting. Bledsoe has struggled lately and Henry should be able to run the ball against GB's run defense which is giving up 5.7 ypr the last 3 games. Buffalo's run defense is also very porous and I expect GB to run the ball a fair amount as well. Think Buffalo will try and run the ball more than usual to keep their defense off the field. I'm expecting a lot of time consuming drives and FGs in this one.
Seahawks -2 small play
Rams are just 1-6 on the road and Holmgren needs some wins if he wants to keep his job. Alexander is running the ball well and Hasselbeck is getting the ball to his talented receivers and putting up a lot of points. Like Seattle to get the win.
6 point tease Washington -.5 and Atlanta under 49.5 small play
Like Washington to win at home against a Houston team with no offense. Ramsey is a very capable QB and Spurrier is in need of a win. Detroit will probably go to more of a run-oriented offense with McMahon at QB. Think the Falcons' D is capable of holding them to around 10-17 points. Atlanta is also more of a running team and Vick still is a little inconsistent throwing the ball at times. Think the total will land around 40 so like the under here.
